you never know where you might find new music on the AM band: [Did They Really Just Play That? - #1343 by TelevisionAU](https://forums.mediaspy.org/t/did-they-really-just-play-that/274/1343)

Even though the change happened in 1978 did radio stations (such as 4IP) immediately change their branding to reflect their new frequencies as for most stations it was only a slight adjustment to their frequency and with dial tuners in those days there wasn’t really a need to know the precise frequency.
